Mini Sit-Ups
Gently pull your baby to a semi-sitting position to build core strength.
In the Little Play app, this activity appears in week 5 of your baby's personalized plan.
How to play
1
Lay your baby on their back and hold both their hands.
2
Slowly pull them up to a 45-degree angle (not all the way up).
3
Lower them back gently. Repeat 2-3 times.
What you need
• Nothing at all. Just the two of you.
Why it works
Gentle pulling helps strengthen the neck and core muscles your baby needs for eventual sitting.
